One of the most important and most difficult things to do for an artist is to draw an appealing face. That doesn't just involve the plane the face is on, but the whole head as well. The right face on a figure can make or break a drawing.

I personally feel that acrylic is the easiest medium to use to paint foliage. I use to watch Bob Ross a lot and was utterly amazed how he does his landscapes...not so much his building, through. So I use his technique quite a bit.

Now then, watercolor is a medium that scares and discourages many people, because it is unpredictable, difficult or impossible to correct or change, it leaks, it streaks, and makes the paper buckle. All of these concerns are true

Egg tempera is a method of painting which was largely popular in the early Renaissance. Botticelli's Birth of Venus (Otherwise known as the Venus on the half-shell) and other, much less famous-paintings were done in the medium.

To cover all the techniques available to an acrylic painter in a short article would be next to impossible, but I can cover how to get yourself started, what tools you need, and talk a bit about various methods, styles, and techniques
